I still use sublime text everyday. By far the boot speed, zero lag between file changes and other slight annoyances are not there. Plus the integration of Sublime Merge has been fantastic.
To each their own, I guess, but given how much of my day editing text, it's hard to want to use a text editor that has noticeable lag. (Cue the usual rants about latency in 2021 on multi-GHz machines)
